Working with NU-PEL and Dr. Yom has been very informative and rewarding. I have learned a lot about what goes into evaluation work, ranging from the understanding the methodologies behind an evaluation project, to setting up and conducting focus groups and surveys, to analyzing the data collected, and much more. Dr. Yom and the NU-PEL team has been very supportive, while also allowing me to be independent and develop my evaluation skills. I am very grateful for the two years I have been able to work with NU-PEL for my both my practicum and capstone!

I am a Doctoral student in Public Policy and I have been working with NU-PEL in various student research and teaching assistant roles. My curiosity about understanding the effectiveness of policies, in real life, informed by data, attracted me to NU-PEL. By working with Dr. Yom and the multigenerational teams, I have gained a range of methodological skills including survey design, quantitative and qualitative data analysis, developing evaluation plans, conducting literature reviews, and honing my research writing skills. Additionally, collaboratively working with a wide range of stakeholders has been very enriching in terms of working in small and large interdisciplinary team-based settings. I am very happy with my experiences so far with NU-PEL and would highly recommend NU-PEL to people interested in learning and building capacity in evaluation.
